Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
½ cup butter
½ cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
½ cup shredded Jarlsberg cheese
½ cup shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese
½ cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
8 ounces evaporated milk
2 eggs, beaten
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a deep 2 1/2-quart baking dish.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain and return to cooking pot.
  • Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir into macaroni.
  • Combine Cheddar, Jarlsberg, Monterey Jack, and mozzarella cheeses in a large bowl; mix well. Add evaporated milk, 1 1/2 cups cheese mixture, and eggs to macaroni. Mix together and season with salt and ground pepper. Transfer to baking dish and sprinkle with remaining cheese mixture.
  • Bake in preheated oven until hot and bubbling around the edges, about 25 minutes.

I'm not sure about this recipe. I've never made mac and cheese with four different kinds of cheese before.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. It's a bit cheesy for my taste, but I liked the flavor of the sauce. I would probably make it again, but I would use less cheese next time.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I don't have a lot of time to cook during the week, so I prefer recipes that are quick and easy.

The sauce was a bit too thick for my liking. I would have preferred it to be a bit thinner and creamier.

I love that this recipe uses four different kinds of cheese. It gives the dish a really complex flavor. I also like that the recipe is pretty flexible. I didn't have any fontina cheese, so I used Gruyère instead. It turned out great!
